Responsibilities:

As a Kitchen Leader, you are the face of our organization. You are accountable for the performance of the entire team during your shifts and beyond. This includes guest satisfaction, speed-of-service, drive-thru performance, kitchen production, food quality, labor control, and other managerial duties.

Restaurant leadership is not easy, especially as you are growing into the role! Learning to lead a team is one of the steepest growth curves you can set out on within Chick-fil-A. Candidates must be able to multi-task, respond with urgency, lead with a balance warmth with strength, and hold their team accountable. Because of this, we have created this Restaurant Manager Development Program which is broken down into 2 phases to help your growth and success within our organization.

In phase 1, you will be learning our culture and learning our business. You will spend time in every role within our organization in order to learn the basic competencies required for our store to run effectively every shift. Also during this period, you will be able to build the relationships with your team mates, gaining their trust, which will be vital as you lead. Phase 1 typically lasts 2-4 months but is flexible based on your growth trajectory as a leader within our organization.

During Phase 2, you will begin the training rotations for Kitchen Leading. This period is typically an intensive 5-8 weeks where you shadow current leaders and lead under their guidance and influence. Your final weeks in Phase 2 will give you the opportunity to prove what you have learned.

After Phase 2, you become an official Chick-fil-A Kitchen Leader!

Pay for this role is based on availability and the number of hours you are willing to work. A typical week for a Kitchen Leader is based on a 45 hour week.
